Lyrics
Driving all night, too many miles to go
Pedal to the metal, listenin' to the radio
I got three days to get from Cheyenne to San Antone
That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo
Well, my backside's sore and I'm movin' kinda slow
But when I hit Okie City there's a barrel racer that I know
Just a little home cookin' and some lovin' to ease my bones, yeah
That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo
Ride cowboy ride, hold on for your life
Eight seconds is a long, long time when you're sittin' on dynamite
Well, you can't make money, buddy, if you get thrown
That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo
Well, I might get lucky down in ol' San Antone
Find a little Texas girl I could call my own
That lone star lovin's the best I've ever known
That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo
Ride cowboy ride, hold on for your life
Eight seconds is a long, long time when you're sittin' on dynamite
Well, you can't make money, buddy, if you get thrown
That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo
Yeah, that's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo
